Glebe Farm, West Halton DN15

Stunning country house & detached cottage in idyllic rural setting

Walshe’s Property is delighted to bring to the market Glebe Farm, a truly exceptional Grade ii-listed country house with a separate self-contained cottage, nestled just outside the charming village of West Halton. This beautifully presented property seamlessly blends character and modern living, making it an ideal family home or a lucrative investment opportunity.

Country House

Originally a traditional working farm, Glebe Farm has been lovingly transformed into a stunning residence while preserving its period charm. The main house dates back to the 1800s, with an attached barn that was meticulously converted in the 21st century to an impeccable standard. Characterful features such as original sash windows, wooden staircase, exposed beams, and a striking mezzanine with a glass balustrade add to the property’s unique appeal.

The heart of the home is the 63ft open-plan barn conversion, offering a magnificent space incorporating a living area, dining space, modern kitchen, bar, study area, and a ground-floor shower room with WC. The original part of the house also provides two elegant reception rooms, a chefs kitchen, and a utility room. Upstairs, the principal suite is a real showstopper, complete with a dressing room and luxury en-suite. The additional bedrooms are well-proportioned. This substantial home boasts four spacious en-suite bedrooms, ideal for multi-generational living or potential use as a boutique B&B (subject to necessary consents).

The Cottage

A fantastic addition to the estate, the detached cottage is fully self-contained with two en-suite bedrooms, a cloakroom, utility room, and an open-plan kitchen/living space. This provides the perfect setup for extended family, guests, or potential holiday let income. The cottage is fully fitted with underfloor heating throughout.

Additionally, there is planning permission granted for the conversion of two further outbuildings under application number pa/2013/0847, offering incredible potential for further development.

Outside Space & Grounds

Set within approximately 5.18 acres, the grounds include stunning formal gardens, paddocks, terraces, and ample parking. The front approach makes a striking first impression, with a picturesque lawn and fountain leading to the property. A large rear terrace provides the perfect space for entertaining, while the extensive outbuildings include carports, garages, storage areas, a workshop, a tractor store, and kennels with a dog run. A separate access point leads to additional buildings, enhancing the property’s versatility.

The Cottage benefits from its own private garden and parking, ensuring complete independence from the main house.
